Song for this chapter: Break The Cycle - Motionless In White

Sierra's POV

"Sierra hurry up!" My sister, Ashley, yelled from somewhere downstairs.

"My phone isn't charged yet!" I shouted back.

"You won't need your phone; you'll be making conversation with my beautiful boyfriend and his lovely friends," She smirked as she barged into my room, grabbed my phone from the docking station where it was charging and shoved it down her bra. She then proceeded to throw me over her shoulder and make her way out of the house and to the car.

"I don't even want to go!" I whined as I struggled to get away from her, but she was too strong.

"Thank fuck you're so tiny," She mumbled as she threw me in the passenger seat, slammed the door and locked it then went around to the drivers side, unlocked it quickly, jumped in then locked the car again so I couldn't jump out. "You have to go! Chris really wants to meet you; I've told him so much about you Sie."

"I don't like people," I groaned.

"You'll love him I swear," She promised as she started driving down the road. "Are you really wearing that though?" She asked in masked disgust, gesturing towards my baggy Jack Skellington jumper and black skinny jeans.

"Unless it's a fancy party, yes," I smirked. "If you don't like it, you can drop me off here and I'll walk back home," I smiled innocently.

"Nice try," Ash scoffed. "If you still want a place to stay, I advise you keep quiet."

I sighed and leaned back in my seat. Ash is a great sister, but sometimes I can't tell when she's serious and I've misjudged her too many times to risk it now. She took me in when he kicked me out which I guess was the best thing for me because it was better than staying there, but he's ruined me.

Ricky's POV

"Guys be good," Chris warned us for the trillionth time as he ran around the house, tidying for his girlfriend and her sister who were coming to meet everyone.

"Yes mother," Ryan snapped.

Chris shot him a death glare before quickly going back to straightening the flowers in a vase that wasn't there ten minutes ago.

I rolled my eyes at how frantic he was and leaned back, unlocking my phone. I was going to check her Instagram to see what she's been doing, but I decided not to because it isn't healthy for me to do these things - I need to move on, but I know I won't be able to until a girl catches my eye the way she did. I'll know straight away who she is. I always know.

There was a knock at the door and Chris ran so fast, he almost knocked over the vase he just spent ten minutes organising. I rolled my eyes again and continued to mess about with random apps on my phone. Chris swung the door open and hugged a girl with red and black hair. It's just Ashley whom I've met before. I ignored them again because I honestly wasn't interested in being here right now.

"Sierra come on," Ashley said as she dragged a small body inside. I rolled my eyes again. I swear, one day I'm going to roll my eyes too far and they're going to roll right out of my head. "Chris this is my stubborn younger sister Sierra. Sierra this is Chris."

"Lovely to meet you," Chris smiled and I heard a lip-smacking sound meaning he either kissed her hand or her and considering his girlfriend is right there, I'm hoping it was her hand. Chris is into all of that old-time hospitality shit.

"Same goes," A silky voice replied.

My head shot up and I felt like my eyes were going to bulge out of my head when I saw the beauty that stood before me. Her hair was the same style as her sisters, straight and middle parted except her was jet black, shiny and down to her waist. She was wearing an over-sized grey, Jack Skellington jumper that seemed to be swallowing her, black skinny jeans that were skin-tight on her slim legs and black VANS were on her tiny feet. She had a tattoo on her small hand, but that's all that was visible to me, a septum piercing and one piercing on the left side of her lip. 

She looked as if she stood at no more than 5'2 and was a polar opposite to Ashley. She seemed more quiet and reserved whereas Ashley is bold an outgoing. I notice she's not only small in height, but in weight as well. I can't see much, but I see the bones in her hand stick out quite a bit, her cheek bones are very prominent and hollow and her legs didn't touch each other at all when she placed her two feet together. It would worry me, but she doesn't seem ill, just naturally skinny. She was very pale, but not sickly pale it was more of a snowy pale and as she looked up and met eyes with me, I got lost in her bright green ones almost immediately. A scarlet colour flushed on her cheeks and I realised I had been staring for quite a while. The guys were all smirking at me, Sierra was staring daggers at the floor as her cheeks slowly lost their flaming tint and Ashley was staring daggers right at me. I looked away from her quickly and down at my tattooed hands.

I glanced back up at Sierra after a moments awkward silence to see she was looking at me however it didn't seem like she was staring, more like she was observing me. Studying me even. Trying to figure me out.

I know I've only just met her and am yet to speak to her, but I can tell she's different. I need to know her.

Hey guys! So yeah I decided to write a new story.. I'm really excited about this so please give it a chance. I'm planning on putting a few of my less popular and slower updated fanfictions on hold so I can focus on my better ones. I'm not sure if I'm going to update this on a particular day or just go with the flow so I'll get back to you on that. I love you guys! Stay beautiful!
